It doesn't have a dipstick for the automatic transmission.
I have a 2000 Malibu and it does not have a tranny dipstick. You have to check fluid under car, there is a check hole on the trans. It's a pain in the butt.
You add trans fluid down the trans dipstick tube.
manual trans dont have dip sticks....
You have to refill it through the trans dipstick tube.
Oil dipstick is in the regular spot for most cars trans. The catera did not come with one it is checked under the car

Put trans. fluid in through the dipstick hole, be careful not to overfill
6.5 qts. of synthetic 5w-30
